Have a requirement to select the 7th column. eg:

cat filename | awk '{print $7}'

The issue is that the data in the 4th column has multiple values with blank in between. example - The last line in the below output:

user  \Adminis FL_vol Design         0         -       1       -
group        0 FL_vol Design   19324481         -    3014       -
user      \MAK FL_vol Design   16875161         -    2618       -
tree       826 FL_vol Out Global Doc Mark     16875162         -    9618       - /vol/FL_vol/Out Global Doc Mark
